Just before my annual journey to Mecca (Bonneville) I cut and welded up the rear end housing. The axles came from Leo's old Chevy after it rolled, as well as the Wilwood disc brakes. I simply can't afford the conversion to put Chevy gears in a Ford 9. When it's built and running, when I'm looking for that last 2%, then I'll do it. Weight really isn't too much of an issue on the salt, as the track is generally smooth. I think for the initial runs, the rear end will remain relatively stock with the exception of the 35 spline axles and spool. I have most of what it will take to dry sump it later. Anyone know what kind of nozzles to use for spraying the oil?
That engine!?, hummmm, must like inlines a lot, looks like two straight fours on a common crank.
